Hi Shravan,

another option - depending on what you are after - could be to use
Devdatta's point data for post offices, voronoi it into polygons, and
aggregate by pincode - that might not be the same as official
boundaries, but the closest you can get (each locality in India would be
assigned to the most proximate postoffice...)

Best,
Raphael
